I can't really apply that workaround to our application (deleting the queue and re-creating it) I'm afraid. > A shot in the dark: is there any chance that you might have messages > expiring before they can be consumed?

We don't have any message expiry set so I don't think that is it. FWIW I tried 5.14.4 and the same problem seems to be present. When I get some free time in the weeks ahead I'll see if I can reproduce this in a unit test. -- Cheers, David
